Jeremias 41:1-6

Listen to Jeremias 41:1-6
1 Sucedeu, porém, no mês sétimo, que veio Ismael, filho de Netanias, filho de Elisama, de sangue real, e um dos nobres do rei, e dez homens com ele, a Gedalias, filho de Aicão, a Mizpá; e eles comeram pão juntos ali em Mizpá.
2 E levantou-se Ismael, filho de Netanias, com os dez homens que estavam com ele, e feriram a Gedalias, filho de Aicão, filho de Safã, � espada, matando assim aquele que o rei de Babilônia havia posto por governador sobre a terra.
3 Matou também Ismael a todos os judeus que estavam com Gedalias, em Mizpá, como também aos soldados caldeus que se achavam ali.
4 Sucedeu pois no dia seguinte, depois que ele matara a Gedalias, sem ninguém o saber,
5 que vieram de Siquém, de Siló e de Samária, oitenta homens, com a barba rapada, e os vestidos rasgados e tendo as carnes retalhadas, trazendo nas mãos ofertas de cereais e incenso, para os levarem � casa do Senhor.
6 E, saindo-lhes ao encontro Ismael, filho de Netanias, desde Mizpá, ia chorando; e sucedeu que, encontrando-os, lhes disse: Vinde a Gedalias, filho de Aicão.

INTRODUCTION TO JEREMIAH 41

This chapter relates the event of the conspiracy against Gedaliah Johanan and the princes had informed him of, to which he gave no credit; but it proved true. An account is given of the murder of Gedaliah, and of the Jews and Chaldeans with him; and of the perpetrators of it, Jer 41:1-3; and of the chief of them, Ishmael's treacherous dealing with fourscore men that came from several parts to the house of God to offer sacrifice, who all perished by his hands, excepting ten, Jer 41:4-9; and of the rest of the people at Mizpah being carried away, in order to be captives among the Ammonites, Jer 41:10; and of Johanan, and the rest of the captives, hearing of all this, and coming out to fight with Ishmael; upon which the people deserted him, and he fled to the Ammonites, Jer 41:11-15; and of Johanan and the people settling in the way to Egypt, to flee there on occasion, should the Chaldeans fall on them for what was done to the governor, which they feared, Jer 41:16-18.
